installed my buschur 3" turboback today...
Holy shat... all I can say is that this thing is a monster. Not the exhaust, the CAR. I mean it is just ridiculous the sound that this thing now unleashes at wot (and hell idle for that matter).
I got the turboback with a test pipe, so it's minimal sound deadening at its finest. :P
The exhaust itself arrived right on time, and the guys at Buschur (David, Jarrod, Tym) were very helpful and put up w/ my constant barrage of phone calls without a hint of "oh god not this guy".
If you are looking for an exhaust I highly recommend this unit. The slip clamps are awesome, the quality of the exhaust itself is fantastic, everything fits perfectly and it really wasn't that much of a pita to install (save the o2 sensor -- what a mess that was).
Power gains are up there. Definite hardcore top end gains, and good mid range gains. I'm off to the dyno again wednesday so we'll see how much it really is.
Overall I am ridiculously pleased even though it's louder than hell on fire. Thanks Buschur!

How does it look from the back! I'm trying to decide b/w a few turbo backs and this posts helps a lot. Let me know how it looks. I'm not sure about the sound. Cuz if it's ridicuously loud then i'm a little hesitant.

It looks great from the back. I am going to tweak the hanging a bit since it's about 1/4" off center, but otherwise it's fantastic. The can does hang a bit low for me, so I'm going to try to adjust that as well.
To give you a description of how loud it is, it's nothing but a 3" pipe from the o2 housing back, with a teeny tiny muffler on the end. If you want something quieter, you should probably get at least the magnaflow muffler option and/or a high-flow cat. Check out Mach V motorsports for a vid of the magnaflow turboback in action.
